Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven (6 Quart, Indigo)

YOUR GO-TO DUTCH OVEN: A flawless fusion of form and function that endures. The Lodge Dutch Oven not only enhances your kitchen's aesthetic but is an enameled cast iron classic, ideal for preparing and serving unforgettable meals. Broil, braise, bake, or roast your favorite dishes in the oven up to 500 Degrees Fahrenheit.

WHAT IS PORCELAIN ENAMEL ON CAST IRON? It is a glass that becomes bonded to the cast iron at high temperatures. A particulate of glass, called frit, is applied to the cast iron vessel and then baked at temperatures between 1200 and 1400° F. The glass frit melts and fuses to the cast iron, forming a bond. Porcelain enamel on cast iron is heat-tolerant and impervious to water and other consumables.

EASY TO COOK AND CLEAN: The porcelain-enameled interior has a smooth finish that minimizes sticking, promotes caramelization, and resists staining. Although enameled cast iron is dishwasher-safe, hand-washing with warm soapy water and a nylon scrub brush is recommended to keep your Dutch Oven in top-notch condition.

HEAT RETENTION: The cast iron vessel boasts superior heat distribution and retention, evenly heating throughout both the bottom and sidewalls. The tightly fitting lid seals in moisture for scrumptious pot roasts, stews, or a large batch of beans. Our heat retention also reduces the amount of energy needed for cooking.
